FOOD
COMBINING Most of us are becoming aware that our Digestive Systems are not happy. One of the key reasons is POOR FOOD COMBINING. The reasons are simple, like -
We can’t use the Gall-bile and use the Pancreatic secretions at the same time translated this means NO MEAT (gall bladder secretions required to digest) & POTATOES (pancreatic juices needed to digest)
(PROTEINS & CARBOHYDRATES) as it is physically impossible for these two organs to empty into the Duodenum - small intestines. Food combining is confusing most people because there are some rules which seem to cross over each other, so lets work with the basic rules to find the INDIVIDUAL EATING PLAN AS EACH BODY REVEALS IT’S NEED’S TO IT’S DRIVER.
SIMPLY
- ORGANIC FOOD IS REAL AND IT IS NOURISHING
FRUITS & VEGETABLE DON'T MIX. The sugars & acids in fruits slow the digestion of the starches in vegetables and may cause fermentation, bloating and gas. It is best to eat fruits and vegetables separately at different meals. Occasional fruit desserts should be eaten 1 ½ - 2 hours after a meal of vegetables or sprouts. When eating fruits, avoid mixing acid fruits with sweet fruits. Use either sweet or acid fruits with sub acid fruits. - NO CITRUS WITH OTHER FRUIT Any greens, sprouts, and vegetables (including avocados) mix well together. Sauces made from avocados, seeds, or nuts also mix well with greens, vegetables, and sprouts, just try to avoid using overly complex mixtures of these foods at one meal. A good rule of thumb is to limit the number of foods used in combination to 8 or less. I.e.. Steak & salad - lettuce, carrot, celery, avocado, tomato, sprouts, dandelion greens. FOOD COMBININGAvoid eating BREAD, SPROUTED GRAINS OR GRAIN CRISPS with ACID FRUITS. Occasionally you may use sweet or sub acid fruits with sprouted grains to make cereals or breads. FRUITS GO WELL WITH SPROUTED SEED OR NUT SAUCES.The one EXCEPTION IS MELONS, WHICH SHOULD BE EATEN ALONE. Also never combine any melon with another melon. Try
to avoid drinking with your meals. It is better to take juices ½ hour before
meals or 1-½ hours after. Drinking while eaten weakens the action of the
digestive juices in the stomach and is unnecessary in terms of thirst when you
eat plenty of natural foods, because they have a high percentage of water. EXCELLENT FOOD COMBINING IS THE KEY TO ENERGIZED LIFE. THE WAY TO A HEALTHY BOWEL, AND A MUCH MORE ACTIVE LIFE. Balance IS THE KEY WORD
- I AM BALANCED - SO MY DIET IS BALANCED
MY DIET IS BALANCED - I AM BALANCED RULES TO HEALTHY EATING
FOR OPTIMAL DIGESTION TRY THESE SIMPLE RULES Chew
foods thoroughly, SALIVA IS THE FIRST STEP IN DIGESTION, ENZYME FULL TO START
THE BREAK DOWN FOOD IN THE MOUTH. 30 or more chews per mouthful. Mix liquids and
juices with you saliva as well.
Eat food that is warmed to room temperature.
Excessively
cold foods dilated the diaphragm, which can cause chest pains. Cold food in the
stomach must be bought to body temperature before digestion can occur. This also
burns energy to extract energy - it’s a waste of energy.
Eat
raw food at a meal before any cooked food. -As raw food has a more rapid
digestion, which will push the slower, cooked foods through the digestive tract
too quickly reducing the assimilation of nutrients. ·
Cooked food is a slow digestive process Eating
cooked food first causes fermentation in digestion and gas is produced. Be
relaxed when eating; look at your food so your brain may instruct your body
which processes are required. Make
meals of one or two combinations, especially one protein or starch with one or
two vegetables. i.e. Chicken with
cabbage
All
juices can be mixed because they are liquid and will be absorbed by the body in
½ hour. The longer the juice can sit in the mouth, under the tongue
(sublingual) the more nutrition is absorbed.
To correct Nutritional Deficiencies we us Juice Plus+ IF
YOU SUFFER FROM THE HEAT EXCESSIVELY WE HAVE LEMON
& MINT MEADE —
ADD 20 ml to a
glass of water for internal
coolness.
Don’t forget to exercise & meditate - you all know how highly I recommend YOGA REMEMBER
- NO YANG ON YANG - (HOT EXERCISE IN THE HEAT OF THE DAY) THIS HAS A NEGATIVE
EFFECT ON THE HEART & CIRCULATION
ANYONE
FEELING BLUE NEEDS TO UP THEIR INTAKE OF KELP - and other Seaweed. To most
Australians Seaweed has not been a part of our diet. This dietary deficiency
creates havoc in the body. Adversely affecting the Thyroid Gland and
Metabolism, Moods, and all body tissues and organs.
There are many unseen dangers in eating COMMERCIAL FOOD - TAKE-ALWAYS & JUNK FOOD. These foods are broken down and assimilated into our body - the chemistry of take-always, lollies etc. are synthetic and many have been identified as Extremely Toxic.
Commercially grown foods are Nutrient deficient and SPRAYED with poisons etc., all this chemistry is taken in to the body with disastrous effects on the chemistry of our body - much of this chemistry is transformed in our body to potential cancers or some other destructive process. |
